Jens Kjeldsen has taken up a protest position outside the US consulate which he will maintain on a regular schedule.




Flag nerds go, what is the middle flag? No cheating from the Nordics, let the others figure it out.

I will no longer doubt that all of the crazy things attributed to Roman Emperors by contemporaries are true. Modern historians sometime claim the crazy stories are all made up by the emperor's enemies, but I think we can now clearly see that you can, in fact, have a crazy emperor.

Just rename them the Epstein Islands and get this foolishness over with.
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

Seriously if America attacks Greenland militarily I will use every gentry fiber of my being in making sure the Americans are kicked out of Iceland. Their Air Force and their Los Angeles submarines can power project from Mar-a-Lago.

He hasn't made his favorite putter Senator yet.

There is nothing to stop him in a structural sense. Congress is this weird vestigial organ, the Senators are cowed except for those retiring. There is no realistic mechanism to put gramps into a home.

I think it's 50/50 that Trump will take Greenland in the next few days.

Now if only we could send him and keep him there...

He seems likely to want to bomb Iran next. Also establishing a foothold in Greenland does not mean the Nordics stop fighting. Greenland at this time of year is very, very inhospitable. Man, it would be something, firefights breaking out in the Rammstein cafeteria between US forces and their former allies.

Wouldn't it be funny if the Germans or so kidnap the orange man from Davos and bring him to court...

Fantasy.

Consult the Melian Dialogue for current US policy.

The gun is already loaded on Greenland, and forces from Alaska supposedly heading for Minnesota are ready to go. Once the US Navy icebreaker leaves the East Coast, then the trigger will have been pulled. There doesn't seem to be any urgency regarding Iran at the moment.

Yeah, I'm guessing the Putin faction inside the White House outmanoeuvred the Israel faction when it comes to Iran.
